remember when discussing the players arrested last night that Fostermom is a frequent visitor here. Let's be gentleman and ladies and govern ourselves accordingly.

I agree! Remember these are college kids and I'm sure we have all done the very same thing wether we were in college or not. Every team in the country is guilty of this on a weekly basis.

It's one thing if it's a pattern of behavior, it's quite another if it's an isolated incident

Fostermom posting here or not, it was a stupid mistake.

I hate that for all involved, but I would never call them names or attack them for it.

They are kids, they need to have the chance to learn from mistakes.

If they did what is being reported then Coach Fulmer will discipline them. We should just leave it to him to handle in the best way he sees fit.

why insult them by calling them "kids"? You might as well be saying "boys will be boys". When I was 20 I didn't consider myself a kid and I'm sure none of you did either. There really is no excuse for this kind of behavior. These players on scholarships know that they are in a media fishbowl and that they represent the University. They blew it last night.

LOL

Proof that no matter what you say, SOMEONE is always going to be pissed off, or make something out of it that isn't there.

I keep trying to tell my supervisors this when we bend over backwards for customers that will stab you in the back for being nice, but they just don't get it.

I wasn't "insulting" them by calling them kids. I think 18-20 year olds are STILL KIDS and I think that if you're 25 and still acting like you're 18, you're STILL A KID.

(This coming from a 27 yr old.)

Thank you. They are NOT kids, which is why the 21 year old drinking age is idioic. In my opinion they did nothing wrong.

and you've never made a mistake, you're in that small percentage that's never let anyone down. Wow, it must be nice to waltz through life always making the right decisions and never regreting anything

where did you come up with that BS? I've never claimed to be perfect here or anywhere else. I can honestly say, however, that I've never been drunk and belligerent at 3am.

as a parent of two boys, I know how I would react if any one of these three were my son. They made an adult decision, now they have to live with the consequences of that decision.

of course they have to live with the consequences, no one is disputing that, but you seem so vehement in your condemnation, as a father of two boys you should understand forgiveness
